Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead)

The Day of the Dead altar is meant to educate the MU community on the Latino holiday Día de los Muertos. We use books and decorations to educate the community on what an altar may look like (or what items go into an altar) as well as the purpose of an altar. We prepare skulls for the student body to color prior to the display case and use the skulls prepared by the community in our altar. We also invite the community to share pictures, blurbs, and/or trinkets of loved ones to celebrate this holiday.
